From engram
This skill should be used when the user asks to "search memories", "find in memory", "what do I remember about X", "recall past decisions", "check memory for X", or needs guidance on constructing memory queries. Covers: MCP tool usage patterns, memory type selection (episodic/semantic/procedural/working), scope selection (session/project/user), importance scoring, and retrieval strategies (BM25, graph, hybrid).

PROACTIVELY query Forgetful MCP (mcp__forgetful__* tools) when starting work on any project, when user references past decisions or patterns, when implementing features that may have been solved before, or when needing context about preferences. Save important decisions, patterns, and architectural insights to memory.
Searches and retrieves memories from Cortex persistent memory using WRRF retrieval. Use for past decisions, patterns, bugs, or architecture context.
